    This set of vintage globe bookends - Made in Italy in the 1960's. One of the bookends is made of wood and metal and has the signs of the zodiac printed on the center metal band. Inside the gold tone metal round grid is a small metal gold tone globe. Both the gold tone grid and gold globe spin on its axis. The other bookend depicts an old world globe that also spins on its axis. The bottom of the bookends have a brown felt lining and gold stamp that states, "MADE IN ITALY".

      These are great!
      So a globe of earth and a globe of the (ancient) heavens. Love them.
